Anyway, after a couple of months away, i decided to try out the Star Citizen experience again.
Yes, i know, its Elite... i said the Star Citizen
experience!
9 FPS inside a building with fires.
Without fires, it gets up to 20 FPS... sometimes.
Space station interiors, maybe 30 FPS... for some reason also when docked on my fleet carrier. Only in space did i get back to stable 60 FPS.
There's lots to like in Odyssey in my opinion, but by gods the performance just kills the fun.
I could barely kill the tutorial NPCs due to the horrendous framerate.
Oh, and the game crashed on the system map when i was just looking at the current system.
I've got to laugh at all the people who are quitting Odyssey to play SC if their reason is performance. Its practically identical.
I hope patch 6 will help some more... but not that hopeful.
NMS is starting to look very tempting right about now. I'm fed up with the Star Citizen/Odyssey experience.
On the up side, so many options to play dress up Barbie in Odyssey! I thought SC had lots of customization options, and i'm not sure how they compare, but its insane how many you have in Odyssey, plus loads of skins for weapons as well.
Anyway, sorry for going off-topic.
Where were we? Choice of game engine! FD went with a custom engine.... hmm....
